class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Definition_and_Formation\"><\/span>Definition and Formation<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Petroleum coke is the product obtained by thermal cracking of heavy oil after the distillation of crude oil to separate light and heavy oil. After the reaction is completed, petroleum coke eventually forms black blocks or granules, accompanied by the generation of by-products such as gas and light oil.\u00a0According to the different properties of the raw oil and processing techniques, petroleum coke can be classified into types. And its quality is closely related to the sulfur content and heavy metal content of the petroleum raw materials.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Coal is a solid combustible mineral formed by complex biochemical and physicochemical changes in ancient plants. Influenced by factors such as sedimentary environment, pressure and temperature, it gradually transforms into different types of coal such as lignite, bituminous coal and anthracite.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Physical_Properties\"><\/span>Physical Properties<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<h4><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Appearance_and_Morphology\"><\/span>Appearance and Morphology<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n<p>The\u00a0appearance of petroleum coke is\u00a0a black or dark gray honeycomb-like solid with metallic luster, which is usually in block or granular form. Coal has a variety of appearance colors, ranging from the brown of lignite to the black of anthracite. Its forms include block and powder, and bituminous coal often has distinct strip-like textures.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h4><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Density_and_Hardness\"><\/span>Density and Hardness<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n<p>The density of petroleum coke is generally 1.3-1.9g\/cm\u00b3, which has\u00a0relatively high hardness and a hard texture. Due to different types, the density of coal varies greatly. For example, the density of lignite is approximately 0.9-1.2g\/cm\u00b3, while that of anthracite can reach 1.4-1.9g\/cm\u00b3. And its overall hardness is lower than that of petroleum coke, especially lignite which is relatively soft in texture.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Chemical_Properties\"><\/span>Chemical Properties<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<h4><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Elemental_Composition\"><\/span>Elemental Composition<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n<p>Petroleum coke is mainly composed of carbon, with a content of 80% to 97%, which\u00a0also contains small amounts of hydrogen, sulfur, nitrogen, oxygen and other elements. The sulfur content of high-sulfur petroleum coke can even reach over 5%. Although the elemental composition of coal is also mainly carbon, there are significant differences among different types of coal. Lignite has a carbon content of about 60% to 77%, while anthracite has a carbon content exceeding 90%, which\u00a0also contains a certain amount of minerals.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h4><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Calorific_Value_and_ash_content\"><\/span>Calorific Value and ash content<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n<p>The calorific value of petroleum coke is relatively high, which rang generally\u00a0from 28 to 35MJ\/kg. And it has a relatively low ash content, usually less than 1%.\u00a0The calorific value of coal fluctuates greatly, for example, the calorific value of lignite is approximately 10-20 MJ\/kg, and\u00a0that of anthracite can reach 25-35 MJ\/kg. And its\u00a0ash content is relatively high, generally ranging from 10% to 30%, and for some inferior coal is even higher.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Application_Fields\"><\/span>Application Fields<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Pet_Coke\"><\/span>Pet Coke<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Energy_Field\"><\/span>Energy Field<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><strong><b>Industrial Heating<\/b><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>In terms of industrial heating, you can use petroleum coke as fuel for industrial boilers.
